Pilgrims' Swing - Graham Lloyd

The Andante from the first movement of Mendelssohn's Italian Symphony (often nicknamed Pilgrims' March) contains the most beautifully haunting melody supported by the simplest of bass lines and counterpoint figures. As a young musician, Graham Lloyd was so fascinated by this music he bought the orchestral score to study the notes, which at the time made little sense to him. However, he did notice that the bass line was similar to a "walking bass" line in a standard swing tune.In this composition Graham Lloyd uses Mendelssohn's original bass line, melodic line and counterpoint figures but gives them a swing feel. Who knows, maybe if Mendelssohn had been born a hundred yearslater, he could have become one of our big band leaders!

Piata! - William Owens

This spirited, Latin-flavored piece captures all the excitement of a lively party with a colorfully decorated Piata as its centerpiece. Despite using limited ranges and rhythms, William Owens has written melodies and rhythms that are incredibly engaging, capturing the spirit of children as they seek to capture the prizes within! Challenge your motivated percussionists with the advanced part, or take advantage of the more accessible one. Either way, it sounds great!

Pinazo - Saül Gómez Soler

Assignment from the "Casino Musical de Godella" to commemorate the centenary of the painter Ignacio Pinazo. The work does not attempt to add music to any of our author's paintings, but it takes different pictorial resources as a metaphor for the different sections. The quick layout of his brushstrokes is reflected in the most frantic passages of music. The earthy colors in the darkest sonorities and the typical colors of impressionism reflected in the sonorities of French musical impressionism.
